Hi all. So, I bought omnicharge 20 and it works great apart from this issue. If i have my Digitakt hooked up to the battery and I connect my digitone too, it reboots or crashes one or both machines when i turn the second on. Sometimes I can restart the machine straight away after but more often i have to wait a minute or so before it will turn on again. Anyone else have this issue? I ordered a different DC splitter cable online in case that is the issue. I had another battery previously that gave me the same issue.
If i turn on both units at the same time they both boot up fine and i can use both from the battery.
Any thoughts from anyone?
They seem to pull off too much power at boot. Try a condenser with maybe 1/8F in parallel and you should be fine.
Hey @LyingDalai, Im about to pick one up. What kind of cable have you used to plug 2 Elektron boxes? any recomendations?
So far I havenāt tried 2 Elektron, only one Elektron + Boutique + OP-1 and the Keystep.
A divider cable would be ace, maybe you should only contact the firm that sells it.
I think you can contact them directly on Amazon.
Lovely
Will 65w/110v be ok?
Looking at a ravpower 20100
i think this is the one iām looking at. Is it the 65 w? looks like a rectangular pop can?
edit, nm, you said it was the 65w. Iāll get one too, i think
Are I above the limit of the specificities of digitakt ??
I do not understand what kind of value in (((amp))) and what does that mean
I do not know if the 2Amp are compatible with the digitakt, need help pleaseā¦
Has anyone got the omnicharge, what model and cable do I need for digitone.
The omni has a 2.1mm barrel, the elektrons all share a 2.5mm barrel plug.
I got a 2m 2.1 to 2.5 off ebay for 5ā¬.
For your needs, the omni 13 should be enough, but if you can, iād go for the 20 as you have longer lifespan from the battety even after 1.000 charges when the capacity starts to deplete
Cheap option that I use on the go.
Lithium iron phosphate ( LiFePO4)
12 Ah
Comes with carry case, and a cable that fits the DT perfectly.
Provides long use times, Battery recharge is fairly fast.
As a bonus, you can use this battery to jump start a dead car battery.
Cool thanks. Tricky to buy Omni charge in Aus, might have have to use eBay.
Haha, i also did a Song with the Pad Sample you used :D.
Cool stuff tough
Hello,
I wanted to use a battery setup because I commute on a bus for 30 min to an hour+ depending on trafficā¦ what I ended up picking up was this:
Amazon had it on a short sale for $65 bucksā¦ Iāve snice used it on a plane, the bus, and just out when iām having some breakfastā¦ so itās great to take it around.
Hope that help a bit.
Brett
my XT power is runnig wellā¦I received it discharged but i had good check thru the Elektron and so ā¦ fine ! ! !
Hey guys!
I stumbled over this thread and researched a bit about it. After a while, I ordered a powerbank and an USB-to-9v-adapter to power my Digitakt and Audiothingies Micromonsta. I went for those ones here and they seem to work fine.

Check the imagesā¦ The battery pack seems to ship with different brand names. Iād guess itād be available in other Amazon stores under different names.
Started with 87% factory charge and after about 10mins of play, I am still on 87
The important bit to me was having a solution with switchable DC out and at least two usb ports. With the adapter the Micromonsta runs off one USB port as it only draws 300 mA. It even has a magsafe adapter for my MacBook Pro if Iād be out working and be in need for a recharge. Havenāt had a pressure test, but so far I am really pleased. The Tascam DP-006 is already battery loaded so I guess I am prepared for some productive vacations
Hi Elektronauters
Iām considering this one https://www.thomann.de/dk/kse_falken_1.htm
Anyone having any experience with this and the DT?
Hey! I see that the most popular link directs you to LIFEPOWRās old website! Check out the new place guys!
Hallo parque,
I assume such simple step up Spannungswandler thingies would not work with Digitakt/Digitone due to the mentioned 800Amh max (2A at 5V -> 0,8A at 12V)? (which is fine for Micromonsta since it only needs 0,2A at 9V)
Greetings
Sascha
Hello Sascha!
Yeah, if you have in mind to power both Digitone and Digitakt, youād probably need two of those power banks. With this pair, though, youād probably have enough juice for a weekend of music
Best regards,
parque
